MASS
We encourage our parishioners to attend Mass virtually so that they can prayerfully unite themselves to the Celebration of the Eucharist in their homes.
11:00 a.m. Sunday Mass will be live-streamed directly on our website. Click the banner on the homepage Sunday morning to access the Mass directly on our website.

Prayer for Spiritual Communion
My Jesus, I believe that You are present in the Most Holy Sacrament.
I love You above all things, and I desire to receive You into my soul.
Since I cannot at this moment receive You sacramentally,
come at least spiritually into my heart.
I embrace You as if You were already there and unite myself wholly to You.
Never permit me to be separated from You. Amen.
SUNDAY MASS OBLIGATION WAIVED: The obligation to attend Sunday Mass is lifted for all Catholics in the diocese until further notice. The dispensation from Mass does not remove the obligation to keep the Lord’s Day holy: Seek to refrain from work, spend time in prayer individually and as a family.
RECONCILIATION
On March 27 at 6:00 p.m., a Stay-at-Home Order will go into effect in Durham County that will be in place until April 30, unless it is rescinded or extended.
In addition to the previously announced suspension of public Masses, All Confessions including Drive-thru Confessions have been suspended until further notice. If there is an urgent need for a Sacrament, please contact Holy Infant Church at 919- 519-0266
PARISH EVENTS
All meetings, events, activities and liturgical services are canceled until April 30. At that time, we will look at the current directives from public health, governmental and diocesan officials and make a decision about future weeks.
FAITH DEVELOPMENT
Faith Development is suspending all in-person Faith Development sessions through the remainder of the 2019-2020 year. Families should anticipate occasional email updates with online resources, spiritual encouragements and links to virtual sessions.
FACILITIES
Parish Offices are closed to visitors. Parish staff will be working remotely and can be reached via phone or email.
DOORS TO THE CHURCH ARE LOCKED
